USSR, UK and USA were known as the "Big Three"
President Roosevelt referred to the Big Three and China as the "Four Policemen".

Answer 2

The Allied forces consisted of the following combatant nations

USA
United Kingdom and the British Empire
(This included the Dominions of Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa)
USSR
France and the French Empire
China (Nationalist and Communist)
The Netherlands and Empire
Belgium and Empire
Luxembourg
Norway
Denmark
Poland
Brazil
Yugoslavia
Greece
Albania (Invaded in early 1939 but never surrendered to the Italians)
Ethiopia (Invaded in 1936 but never surrendered)

In 1945 a lot of countries declared war on the Axis powers in march and April as the United Nations was being formed and one of the founding stipulations of entry at the early stage was a declaration against Germany and or Japan.

Italy joined the Allies as a Co-Combatnat nation as it was split into two areas the Fascist dominated North and the Conquered South and contributed its remaining forces and fleet to help the Allies.
Finland, Bulgaria and Rumania also switched camps from the Axis to Allies once there counries where being overrun and forces almost destroyed and they had no fear of reprisals from the German SS forces.
Some countries like Portugal, Iceland, and some of the Latin American States allowed Allied forces to use their territory as a base of operations in clear contrevention of the Hague Convention by not demanding the interment or removal of the forces on Neutral soil, but never declared war until later in 1945 (The Axis powers had the same benefit as well from certain countries)

I hope this all helps.

Answer 3

the U.S , Canada, Austrailia , South Africa, Rhodesia, India

France was half on the side of Germany Vichy France - and the other was under occupation. Never forget that - half the french helped the nazis - they should never hold their heads high about the war. England had many allies because of the commonwealth - volunteers flocked from Canada - Austrailia - New Zealand Rhodesia and South Africa. Russia was an ally of Britain too after being invaded by Germany in 41 - before 41 russia had been an ally of germany as is clear when russia invaded poland from the east as germany invaded them from the west in 1939 . Anything you want to know on history I will know - anytime - I will teach it at the univesity level eventually when I get all those courses done for that

Answer 4

The three major Allied powers were Great Britain, The United States and the USSR. There were a number of other countries that joined in on the allied side.

g-day!

Answer 5

Surely the four powers that shared out Germany and Berlin after peace broke out.

Ergo: USA, USSR, Britain, and France.

Other countries supported the "allies", of course, not least those who were occupied by Germany during the war, but they are not usually titled "allies".

Answer 6

The U.S.A, Britain, France and Russia were the main allies, although other countries such as Australia, New zealand and Canada also played major parts in the war.

Answer 7

Within the ranks of the Allied powers, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the United States of America, and the United Kingdom were known as "The Big Three." U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt referred to the Big Three and China as the "Four Policemen". France, before its defeat in 1940 and after its liberation in 1944, was also considered a major Ally.

You can pick to be either the Allied powers of Britain, Russia, and America, or instead opt to play as the Axis powers of Germany and Japan. Either way, this is a worldwide conflict where you'll have to learn to play strategically across two fronts, no matter who you’re playing as.
It's a great game.

Answer 9

French were until they were overerun .The USA,Canada,Australia and the British Empire including India.The USSR had bet to win and lose ie.The USSR made the Soviet-Nazi pact so they were somehow never The allies although they were on the side of the allies they had already carved up Poland under a secret codicil of the Soviet- Nazi pact.

Answer 10

United States, USSR, Canada, France, Poland, Australia and New Zealand, India.

France and Poland were both occupied by Germany early on, so they didn't contribute much to the victory. Although there was a Polish Parachute unit that was top notch. I think Australia, New Zealand and India were all still part of the British Empire, but they still jumped in willingly and bravely.
